No SG-1 recap, 'cause I was too busy working on other stuff... but here's the Atlantis wrap-up!

SGA: Common Ground
-Kolya is teh MAN
-Leyden cleans up preeeetty... ooooh...
-It totally looks like Teyla is borrowing Lizzie's clothes, LOL
-Okay, John facing down the Wraith that fed on him? AWESOME.
-Does anyone else realize that Leyden has basically gotten the Lanteans to do his work for him? :P
-I gotta hand it to Liz... she's standing by her values, even if it means the pain of those she loves...
-I'm totally digging the John teams up with the Wraith story!
-"No promises"? Hehehehe. Methinks Lizzie wants to get even with Kolya, if only through other members of her team. ;)
-HAH! I knew it! The Wrath can de-age people!
-...aaaand, Kolya escapes yet again! Good, that leaves the door open for him to come back. :P

The final opinion? Another winner!! WOO! I loved that we got a unique look at the Wraith in this one. Makes them a lot more interesting to see that they're not just mindless eating machines!

Hee! Loved this one, though I was sad to see sheppard turn into an old man :( Eventhough i knew he was the hero so he *had* to turn out ok :P
Kirsten[info]xfkirsten on August 27th, 2006 08:17 pm (UTC)
Exactly why I wasn't worried for him. :P

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why we love Atlantis! :D

They're on a roll this season! :D

I must be a complete idiot because I did not see that de-aging from the wraith coming. I honestly couldn't think of how it could be reversed in the last few minutes left. I thought it was a fascinating new aspect to learn about the Wraith and his rather cryptic remarks to Sheppard about Sheppard being a brother and such.
Kirsten[info]xfkirsten on August 27th, 2006 08:20 pm (UTC)
Ah, well, after they repeatedly said they didn't know much about the feeding process, and the Wraith said there was a lot we didn't know about them, I figured SOMEHOW he has to get John back to being young, and just put two and two together. :P LOVED the dynamic between the two of them!

I must have just been too distracted by the return of the pretty to care how it was done. ;D And the fact that the show is on an hour later making me more tired and unable to think of an answer. ;)

I think JF shines when he has an opportunity for one on one work with another actor. I think I read that's something he really likes, but doesn't get a chance often in this show. Actually I think he gets that opportunity with Torri Higginson the most.

It was a good episode and I really enjoyed learning more about the wraith too, but James should have played him....

Also I was really hoping the wraith will feed on Kolya. The poor thing even had to wear a metal glove. :(
Kirsten[info]xfkirsten on August 27th, 2006 08:21 pm (UTC)
I kinda liked this guy playing the Wraith. He sounded kinda familiar for some reason, but I can't place the voice.

Heee... the metal glove totally made me think of it as the Wraith version of the mask from Silence of the Lambs. :P
sg_lab[info]sg_lab on August 27th, 2006 08:34 pm (UTC)
The actor who played the wraith is the one who plays the Athosian Halling. Chris Hyredahl I think is his name. Not sure of the spelling.
Kirsten[info]xfkirsten on August 28th, 2006 11:44 pm (UTC)
Ah, I KNEW he sounded familiar! :D Thanks! :D
Samantha[info]salukfan on August 26th, 2006 09:53 pm (UTC)
Any episode that features Kolya is bound to be kickass. :p
Kirsten[info]xfkirsten on August 27th, 2006 08:21 pm (UTC)
Oh yeah it is!
Goonerette: Kara giggles[info]gooner_ette on August 27th, 2006 09:53 am (UTC)
Kolya RULES.
Kirsten[info]xfkirsten on August 27th, 2006 08:22 pm (UTC)
Kolya is the MAN. :D
Amie[info]hipapheralkus on August 27th, 2006 03:48 pm (UTC)
Really great ep! I'm glad they brought back Kolya again!
Kirsten[info]xfkirsten on August 27th, 2006 08:22 pm (UTC)
I am, too! Can't wait to see more of him!

De-age people? I did NOT see that one coming. I was hoping it'd happen, but I was surprised nonetheless.

In retrospect, doesn't it remind you of that scene from Spaceballs?

"It's Mega-Maid, sir; she's gone from suck to blow!"
Kirsten[info]xfkirsten on September 2nd, 2006 07:10 am (UTC)
Ah, I'd pay to see a Dark Helmet Wraith! :P
The Duuuuuuude: Idea![info]dcpesses on September 2nd, 2006 07:12 am (UTC)
Remind me later and I'll post a photoshop. :)
Kirsten[info]xfkirsten on September 2nd, 2006 07:15 am (UTC)
Woo!!!
